American Legion

The American Legion, founded by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the nation's largest Veterans Service Organization dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and providing community resources, the organization has championed the fight against veteran suicide through its "Be The One" initiative.

For over a century, the American Legion has strengthened America and its veterans through vital programs and services that reflect community spirit and inspire service. Engaging in youth development through American Legion Baseball and other initiatives, the organization continues to empower individuals to contribute to something larger than themselves.
